Reply to comment by wex52 in [OC] Pizza eating challenge by a non-professional eater in a local competition by Tambury

Cheers, I appreciate the feedback. It's a difficult concept to convey pizza as a linear unit, especially when most people intuitively think of pizza as an 11-ish inch diameter circle cut into 8 slices. In hindsight, keeping the headline '1 metre of pizza' but using number of slices as the primary axis.

As for energy, I wasn't quite thinking of global appeal when I made it. Kilojoules is standard for energy and is on product labels, though calories is understood. Perhaps I could have added ticks to the other side of the energy axis in Cal at the risk of clutter.

You know for a split second I wondered if calories weren’t universal. I actually didn’t know it wasn’t. I should have realized that if they were, nobody would suddenly opt for kJ.
